Ethel L sent in her story, about a great find: "Recently I was at a local flea
market when I found a beautiful Wathams Ladies Watch.  It still had the little
plastic covers on the front and back.  I know that the Watham Watch Co.  went
out of business in 1957.  This watch was in a plastic bag and the price was
$1.50.  The lady said she didn't know if it worked but I took a chance since
it looked in new condition.  Took it home put a battery in and it runs
perfectly.  The best buy I ever made at a flea market.  I gave the lady $2.00
and since she didn't have change she gave me a dollar back.  What a find."


Theresa B. sent us these pictures and wants to know if anyone can help her
with more info and a value of possible: "I have a antique tool that I do
believe is a drill press of some sorts and would like to know its value.  ...I
don't have much history on this but I know that it has L.F.&C.  New Britain,
Conn.  USA. engraved on it and that it is a Vintage hand drill press.  "
